Unfortunately, Midwest did not have a kiosk working outside, like the rest, so we had to go inside. Therein, since we could not check our luggage in, until 2 hours before, I decided to ask if there was a place where we could check our luggage in, to be held, until we could actually check it in. I think it may be called something like baggage claim area, but I'm sure someone who works there would be able to tell you.
